Regular Member grub12 Posted March 15, 2010 Regular Member Share Posted March 15, 2010 how much of success or failure of a HT is based upon what we do after a HT is preformed? for example i wear a hat everyday to work....do u think it would have a negative effect on how many graphs make it or i workout alot and sweat alot do u think this would have a negative impact......or is it basically your physical makeup or doctor chosen???? just curious what everyone thinks...

Bill - Seemiller Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 grub12, If a hair transplant procedure is done right and the grafts are properly handled and cared for during the procedure, there's a high likelihood of successful hair growth and high yield. Sometimes, an individual's physiology can cause problems for unknown reasons. Additionally, postoperative care of the grafts over the first 10 days or so after can affect the growth of a hair transplant. But postoperative care is minimal and consists mostly of keeping the area clean and preventing damage to the grafts. This is why patients should follow their physician's postoperative instructions and avoid touching or pulling on the grafts during the critical healing stages. Patients should also avoid bumping their heads. Wearing a loose fitting hat the first week won't hinder the success of a hair transplant as long as it doesn't make contact with the grafts and cause any rubbing or friction. It's also a good idea not to do any intensive physical exercise and avoid excessive sweating for the first week. Additionally, while infection is rare, it can occur and potentially hinder transplanted hair growth if not treated promptly. I hope this helps.
